Avery Elementary PTO

You are invited to the Avery Fall Festival this October 23 from 6 pm - 9 pm. Fall Festival is an old-fashioned carnival with games, a bounce house, food, and fun, all while fundraising for the Avery PTO.

New this year: Sensory Hour, 5–6 PM

Before the festival opens to everyone, we're dedicating 5–6 PM to welcoming guests with visible and invisible disabilities, along with their families. This hour will offer a calmer, lower-sensory environment so every child and family can enjoy the fun on their own terms. Guests may enter at the dedicated entrance on Marshall Ave.
We can't wait to see you there!

We're pressing pause on this year's Progressive Dinner - we weren't able to fill enough hosting spots across all the grades to make it happen. Thank you to everyone who already volunteered! We'll share new dates soon, and would love more families to consider hosting next time ($5/head stipend, you can buddy up with another family and host!).

Meet Avery Night is almost here! Join us Thursday, September 3rd from 7:00–8:30 PM for a fun, casual evening to meet fellow Avery families and learn what the PTO is all about. Childcare is provided, so bring the whole crew!
